#51: Take It or Leave It
A weekly drop of things I love
Take It or Leave It is a weekly highlight series for paid subscribers. Pretty much every Friday, I share a quick hit of things I’m loving.
Most of my writing is long-form and requires time for research between essays. Hopefully, this helps fill in the gaps for you with new finds (or things you want to revisit).
If not, all good. Take it or leave it ✌️
We made it. Here are some Friday updates:
ONE WEEK LEFT! To celebrate my 30th birthday, I’m offering Paid annual subscriptions to my newsletter for just $35 (originally $50) through the end of May. With an annual subscription, you get full access to these posts every week. Also, it’s a great way to support me and my writing. But don’t just take it from me.

I’ve teamed up with some wonderful people to host a writing group called
— a weekly virtual writing session for writers from BIPOC communities and the global majority. We write together every Friday at 9:00AM ET. If you’re looking to meet other writers, please join us.
